Yes it started with 1 server(Xian).

It started with xian.

Bots has always been there, it wasnt the majority as it is today though.

Item mall came later.

And 60 cap was the most fun sro will ever be.

Yup ... I think that Xian was only one server at first ...

LOL those are my skill pics haha.

Yeah older ones would be if you cut out all the skills where lvl 1 is >60 . So like no Ghost Spear Mars, no Double Stab in Bicheon, no Devil Arrow, etc.

Troy opened in late December 2005.
Then Babel opened on Feb 4, 2006.
Athens I think was early March or so and Oasis was just before item mall or 70 cap, I forget which.
@nightbloom I'm pretty sure the wolves were in late June / early July o_O. I remember being all excited about getting one and I was talking to guildies in AoW about it, and I think I only joined AoW on June 8, 2006. :O

I always thought Aege came out a week after Xian.... I was on Chakji's when BrosInArms moved to Aege.

All I remember was the Alpha server wasnt called Xian, it was testserver or something

If i remember lol that it wasnt alchemy added it was alchemy exspansion
you could elixer and and sh1t but you could add tablets and there was no percentages
But the worst thing was the lag the lag was extreme.

oasis was opened a long time before olympus did

olympus, alps, and tibet opened up around the same time with greece coming before them just before alchemy update

iGod · Post by **iGod** » Sun Jan 06, 2008 7:01 pm

It was Alps then Olympus then Tibet i think. Greece opened way before Alps...

i remember when the alchemy update first came everyone thought the lvl 5 european wolf mob was the lvl 60 evolution of the wolf

Hmm ... Where is Babel there ?!

As I recall Xian Troy Aege and Babel were only servers when I was playing on Babel ...

No, I am sure there were only that 4 servers opened when I was playing ..

magisuns · Post by **magisuns** » Sun Jan 06, 2008 7:43 pm

Xian is the first

... starting playing since the isro alpha >.<

torinchibi · Post by **torinchibi** » Sun Jan 06, 2008 7:46 pm

Hmm, I must have first played during spring break '06 since I remember debating between the servers and babel, troy, xian, aige, and olympus were there for sure...I went into aige that time.

Good old no autopot days... I remember when I went back to it that summer...shortly after the wolfs were added, I was amazed at the auto pot and the weird xp orbs.

ranger4life · Post by **ranger4life** » Sun Jan 06, 2008 7:52 pm

From left to right on Wiki, that is the correct order that the servers were released. I'm pretty sure that Babel was one of the top 5 servers, though.

HakubiNi · Post by **HakubiNi** » Sun Jan 06, 2008 8:06 pm

Babel was surely the 4th server to open.

I started playing one day after Troy opened, ad the very server.

It was really better facing server traffic those days, if only we knew...
